Embark on a journey through the martial arts legacy of Master TT Liang, whose passion for Taijiquan was ignited during his high school years in Tientsin under the guidance of the renowned Huang Han Hsun, a master of Praying Mantis boxing. In 1933, while attending a training seminar in Beijing, he had the privilege of studying Tui Shou (Pushing Hands) with Yang Cheng Fu, a prominent figure in the Tai Chi Yang family lineage. Although his formal training with Yang Cheng Fu was brief, it laid the foundation for Liang’s deepening exploration of Taijiquan. Following a period of illness in Shanghai in 1946, Liang delved further into Taijiquan under the tutelage of Cheng Man Ch’ing’s students, eventually commencing formal training with Cheng himself in 1947. Recognized as Cheng’s Da Shih Hsiung (Chief Disciple), Master Liang’s dedication to the art continued until his passing on August 17, 2002, at the remarkable age of 102.
